(from Renault Press
Release) RENAULT TO PRODUCE ELECTRIC VEHICLE BASED ON TWIZY
Z.E. CONCEPT IN VALLADOLID, SPAIN
Renault, which already
produces Mégane Hatchback, Mégane Estate, Modus and Grand Modus
exclusively in Spain, has chosen to manufacture the future electric
vehicle (EV) based on Twizy Z.E. Concept at Valladolid, 150 km north
west of Madrid. Compact, nimble and practical, the future zero
emission EV will fully meet all sustainable urban mobility needs.
Valladolid was selected
for its expertise and performance in compact car production. It
currently produces Modus and Grand Modus and a share of New Clio
output. The Group also chose to produce its future EV in Spain as
close as possible to the sales market, namely Western Europe, in
order to simplify logistics.
Production will start in
2011.
After France, with the
announcement of the production of the future city car based on Zoé
Z.E. Concept, it is now the turn of Renault’s Spanish production
base to prepare for the industrialization of a zeroemission model.
Renault also announced
last month that Valladolid would be allocated production of a
thermal engine in 2012 and a fuel-combustion vehicle in 2013.
Fully aware of the
issues involved in sustainable mobility, Renault has decided to mass
market a
complete range of affordable zero-emission electric vehicles
starting in 2011.
